OCZ claims it is first to market with 2 GB PC3-16000 memory modules offered in a 4 GB (2 x 2 GB) memory kit. As part of the company’s Platinum series, the 2 GHz (1.9 volt) memory devices are rated at 9-9-9 latencies. The company hinted that it will soon be offering PC3-18000 modules in 4 GB kits as well.

Pricing has not been announced. However, 2 GB (2 x 1 GB) kits of OCZ’s Platinum PC3-16000 memory are currently selling for about $300, so expect the 4 GB kit to ring up at least $600.
